Todrick and Austin walk into the studio where the interviews are being conducted. Austin gives Toddy some last-minute words of encouragement before the camera starts to roll. He kisses her and walks off to the side. The red-light flashes, and the recording begins.
Todrick Tabor-Ramsey: “Hey Rockstars! It’s your girl Toddy here, and today I want to tell you all a little story about how I became a wrestler and why I want to be a wrestler. I suppose we should start at the beginning. I was born October 18, 1993, to Jack and Hattie Mae Tabor in Miami, FL. My parents led a simple life, but good ole dad was very strict and had a bit of a drinking problem. On the other hand, my mother was a saint, and she did everything in her power to protect me from him. You see, from the moment I was born, she and the rest of the world knew that I would be a little different.
Okay, a lot different; the doctors and nurses gushed about how beautiful I was. Mom said I’ve been capturing hearts from the very beginning. Growing up was difficult for me. I knew I liked the company of my girls, but I felt attracted to some of the boys. My father hated my soft demeanor and would frequently call me names and hit me to toughen me up. He said I didn’t behave the way a little boy should and that he would make a man out of me. But every time he said it, I had to resist the urge to tell him that I didn’t feel comfortable in my own skin.
That would’ve resulted in a swift beating; my mother would cry, and I didn’t want that. She kept many secrets as I grew up, from dressing up in her clothes to trying on her wigs and makeup. When I did those things, it somehow felt right. I couldn’t explain it then, but she never made me feel like I had to. By now, I am a teenager, and in high school, it wasn't very good until I met Samuel Chatman and Akasha Monroe. They were extremely popular and dating and took to calling me their little brother. No one was allowed to mess with me. Sam wrestled, and I used to love to watch his matches. I think that is where the first seeds were planted.
We graduated, and I moved to Las Vegas. I was a professional dancer and cheerleader for a while, but differences with the new coach made me quit. I was always allowed to use the girl’s locker room because I felt more comfortable in there, and they were comfortable with me. The new guy stopped it, so I quit. Then I saw an ad for AGW, and as fate would have it, my two best friends were a part of the company.
Now we are in the middle of the journey. I trained under them and made my debut. The company was unsure how to book me until Sam and I became a tag team. Royal Anarchy took off, and we were happy for a while. Issues with management caused us to part ways and go to F2B. I really blossomed over there. I was the babyface that the world needed and wanted. The Toddy Effect was in full motion. That’s where I met my husband, Austin. He was a new face in the company, and he chased me and finally got me to go out with him. I moved to Manhattan with him and haven’t looked back. When F2B closed, we went to OPW and excelled yet again. Then it closed, and we ended up at FIGHT!NYC, where I won my first major championship.
I held on to the Manhattan Championship for quite a while and was proud of every moment. I faced some tough competition, but I welcomed the fight. I defended my championship more than any of the other champions. I was fighting for the people in and out of the ring. I worked with various charities, and I am most proud of my work in helping displaced gay teens. The fans loved me, and I loved the right back. I was also the one who defeated the mighty Chris Page cleanly.
This brings us to the end. I am now in OPW, where Austin and I are the tag team champions. Our dreams have come true. I am still a people’s champion. Muah."
